The front room offers incredible flexibility and can serve as either a Living Room or Bedroom, complete with original wood pocket doors for privacy, a large double window for natural light, and an attractive updated lighting fixture.

The spacious Eat-In Kitchen truly serves as the heart of the home and offers an abundance of cabinetry, countertop workspace, storage closet, a pantry closet, and room to gather. The seller's artistic flair shines throughout the space with open display shelving that beautifully showcased her collections of pottery, baskets, dinnerware, and even spices as part of the dcor. Stainless steel appliances including the refrigerator and range remain, along with the built-in dishwasher. Two oversized windows flood the dining area with natural sunlight while offering picturesque views of the colorful side yard landscaping and seasonal blooms.

Equipped with a Mini-Split Heat & Air system (approximately 10 years old), this space can easily adapt to fit your lifestyle needs. The dehumidifier remains with the property. Additional features include a cellar-style basement accessed from the rear deck, housing the mechanical systems while also providing additional storage and potential storm shelter space. The Furnace and Water Heater were replaced in 2016. The seller states street parking has never been an issue and truly loved the convenient Highlands lifestyle this location provides. The fact that the home does need some repairs has been reflected in the pricing, creating an incredible opportunity for a buyer to build equity and personalize this charming Highlands gem.
